Carbon Footprint of a Company

A company’s carbon footprint is the amount of gas emissions released into the atmosphere that have a direct impact on the Earth´s climate. Air pollution by gas emissions is caused by activities such as the consumption of fossil fuels and heat generated from coal or electricity. Calculating the carbon footprint is part of measuring the impact of companies on the environment. Tracking a company’s carbon footprint gives it a competitive advantage, a corporate commitment, and generates cost savings and increased investor interest.
